Ha ha i dont weither or not to laugh this off or what lol i find it more funny than upsetting.. i just lost a rather big portion of my bankroll on titan poker due to people cheating.. now i reported it to their online support and they told me the would get back to me by email but wow people having to cheat to win at poker is rather embarassing... what gave it away besides them talking to each other at the end but was the calling of high bets until the other person htis teh striaght and the other person would fold and just other weird play

Wow... Hopefully Titan support will see the 2(or more?) players working together, refund you your cash lost and give you their bankrolls as compensation!

For me it would be more upsetting than funny, i know those cheaters but never at cashtables. Mostly during freerolls , when two guys see they are from the same country they begin to chat, hope support will help you

I see it all the time . Hard to see when you frist sit down but after some hands you can tell what is going on . People us their MSN to talk to the other players at the same table and set up a network where they can see eachother's cards . I just try not to get cought in it . So watch out they are out their.

I've been accused of collusion myself a couple of times falsely and its not the nicest thing to deal with. I regularly play 7-8 tables on iPoker, as do 2 friends of mine from college at the same level. Obviously we then end up on the same tables quite often. We often chat as well. We also make some pretty sick plays vs each other cos we all know each others games so well. I've made folds and calls vs these guys that I wouldn't make vs anyone else.
Due to the often strange appearing plays we make vs each other and the obvious fact we know each other, we have been accused of colluding more than once. This is obv not the case.
My point being is that people who know each other will inevitably be on the same table at some point, and will make unusual plays, seeing as they know each other. Please reserve judgement till the proof is irreversible.

Yeah would nice to know who they were....
But in general you also have to be very careful before accusing someone for cheating... And especially when you see 2 players from the same country, cause 99 % of the time they are just talking, even thou its hard to believe often, when you can't understand a word they are writing

interesting,,,a subject that really hit me was cheating when i read an artical about a certain bigname poker site,, i was shocked to find out that upper management and!!!! the resident pro had access to a super account,,, a super account being an account that when playing with it you could see all the cards of the players in that game,,,anyway these guys ripped of millions before they got caught,,,,,then u got all the other scams,,,,according to my reading collusion doesnt pay in the long run and is easy to detect , the same gos for robots, then u got this account selling that i just read about,,, thats when a pro or highroller will have a friend or acomplis enter the same bigstake tourney and if he gets knocked out early he will take over the friends seat in the same tourney iether by phone or instant messenger sure hes paying 2 entrance fees or more but think about the the edge it gives him knowing he has 2 or more lifes,,,never new about this s**t till i read on the webv,,,,dam,,,,,,fookiNg greedy bastaRDS,,,,if ya want a link to the news article email me ***********

You can't post your email, against BankrollMob rules. And ya, I heard about the super user. Theres a forum with a million posts and I read 5-6 pages of it. The one guy, potripper, got caught pretty bad..And there was one on Ultimate everyone is talking about. Maybe I should read up on it.
